If you have saved a seat for the 9:30 am Mass but aren't able to attend, please make a point to return your tickets - even on Sunday morning - so that others can attend. Seating at the door is not guaranteed.

MESSAGE SERIES
You can find all the information on our series page HERE.
CURRENT MESSAGE SERIES
Are you anxious? You’re not alone. There are many things making us anxious right now - the pandemic, virtual learning, racial unrest, and this election. But it doesn’t have to be that way-- God doesn’t want us to live in a state of constant anxiety. Our next message series, Anxious for Nothing, will talk about what God has to say about anxiety and how to overcome it. Based on Philippians 4:4 - 8, together we'll discover how God wants more for us - how we truly can be Anxious for Nothing.
Our Tech Ministry is in need of volunteers!
Each week it takes 3 tech volunteers to livestream our Mass.
We need:
Screen Techs - this involves clicking to each screen used during the Mass in a program similar to PowerPoint.
Camera Techs - this person clicks to one of 4 difference camera scenes during the Mass - the altar, the ambo, music group or full screen on a preset computer program.
Audio Techs - this person listens to the sound to make sure that our mics are at the right level and that the music is balanced.
Training is provided for all volunteer positions.
We livestream on Saturdays at 5 pm.
With so many ministries unable to serve in their usual way right now,
consider this an invitation to try something new!
Help keep our online worship accessible for all by serving in this ministry.
Interested? Email us at communications@spxbowie.org.
Our parish has supported S.O.M.E. (So Others May Eat) for over a generation through our financial support, volunteers and sandwich ministry. As we approach winter, a new need has arisen.
S.O.M.E. is in need of donations of new or gently used adult socks. You can drop them off in the bin outside of the school entrance on Tuesdays or Thursdays from 8 am - 2 pm. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
PRESCHOOLERS OF SPX
Did you know that the Preschoolers of SPX have their very own weekly virtual class? Each week they can hear a message created just for them and do activities related to it at home! If you have a PreK 3-5 year old, sign up to receive the link in your inbox on Sundays!
The Sacrament of Reconciliation will be offered on Thursday, October 15th from 7 - 7:45 pm. To read more about our Confession procedures, click HERE.
Be sure to check out our Election 2020 page for information about upcoming deadlines as well as surveys on the candidates.
GIVE
With the long-term economic and social impact of this situation, we encourage parishioners to please continue to financially give to make sure the parish can operate not just in the short-term, but for years to come. Our ability to provide ministries relies solely on the continued generosity of our parishioners. You can give in the following ways:
Businesses and churches are beginning to reopen, however St. Pius X Parish still depends on online donations to continue our ministry. We prayerfully invite you to sign up for eGiving from your computer, smartphone or tablet and set up a recurring donation or make a one-time gift. Sign up today by clicking HERE.
